1/ Are we heading towards a Chasm of Chaos with AI? Someone on X asked for theories of change in the next few years. This is what I see as inevitable before we usher in a potential age of plenty… nirvana. [1-5 years] * AI, Agentic software, Robotics, Quantum tech, and 3D printing see exponential increases in effectiveness. If truly efficient and capable quantum is realized then this timeline accelerates dramatically * All 3 start eating eating away most jobs * Companies race to acquire other companies in their segments to stave off race to bottom on pricing as efficiencies dramatically increase. * Companies that didn't go 💯 in AI die off rapidly * Supply chain begins to shrink * Lack of income decreases global sales * Crypto becomes the defacto payment system

2/ [5-10 years] * Markets begin to collapse * Governments attempt UBI and that works for about 5 minutes * Supply chains start to collapse * More localized & efficient and large scale 3d printing/robotics starts killing mass manufacturing * Shortages abound until can be compensated for locally with printing and robotics * UBI no longer works, because no revenue to pay for it and printing $$ loses power. The race to the bottom dynamic makes it worse.

3/ [Eventually] * All markets collapse * Money loses all value We are now in what I call the Chasm of Chaos. * No leaders taking the difficult steps for a post capitalism existence. * Lots of chaos and suffering in the streets from food and medicine shortages * Most likely violence and crazed cults spring up * Countries will likely invade other countries to secure minerals needed for the tech * Additionally, there is a real chance that the incredible potential of AI is lost in the chaos and we have to rebuild it to get to potential nirvana Think that humans will figure out a way over the Chasm, but much suffering will ensue. On the other side is a nirvana of human existence.

4/ [If Nirvana] * Especially with quantum, most disease and illness eradicated. * Lifespans will be dramtically increased with longevity science driven by AI. * Body part replacements will be common. * Humanity will start looking more and more like singularity predictions, but not required. * Energy solved. Hopefully no one company or country has control over the tech. * Climate solved * Creativity/art explodes. Real life performance and creation become incredibly valuable. * Space travel deep and near becomes normal * Expect there will at some point be a rotation of humanity for a desire to have real life existence experiences. Back to nature, etc * Focus on mindfulness is a likely outcome. * Much more peaceful world with bountiful supplies of everything humans need on demand.

on the other side is a better world with inter-species money and truly and totally holistic thinking. Earth is a closed system in many regards. As Buckminster Fuller said: it's either gonna be everyone or no one
